Tomorrow begins a start to even more oppressive heat
It has been another hot day here on the Western Slope, with highs reaching the mid-to-low 90s in our viewing area. Tonight will be another warm evening as we reach 66°, as partly cloudy skies help trap that heat overnight.
While Friday's high will be an already far above average 96° with mostly clear skies, we won't be done warming up. Saturday will be sunny and rise into the upper 90s. On Father's Day, this Sunday, I have us reaching a high of 100°! Try to get as many of your plans for the day finished during the morning as you can. Overnight lows will be in the mid-to-high 60s for the remainder of the week.
As we head into the weekend, you will want to be cautious about how you spend your time outside. If you have any sensitivities to heat, you're going to want to avoid physical activity outside during the hottest hours of the day. And even if you don't, it will be very important to bring water with you wherever you go, and get some shade when you can. Same thing goes for your pets!
Sadly, this heat wave is not ending any time soon. Monday looks to be another 100° day. We'll briefly dip into the 90s, before getting to near-100 degree temperatures again later next week.
